Quotes 

  • Ulysses Everett McGill : What'd the devil give you for your soul, Tommy?

    Tommy Johnson : Well, he taught me to play this here guitar *real* good.

    Delmar O'Donnell : Oh son, for that you traded your everlasting soul?

    Tommy Johnson : Well, I wasn't usin' it.

  • Pete : Wait a minute. Who elected you leader of this outfit?

    Ulysses Everett McGill : Well Pete, I figured it should be the one with the capacity for abstract thought. But if that ain't the consensus view, then hell, let's put it to a vote.

    Pete : Suits me. I'm voting for yours truly.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : Well I'm voting for yours truly too.

    [Everett and Pete look at Delmar for the deciding vote] 

    Delmar O'Donnell : Okay... I'm with you fellas.

  • Delmar O'Donnell : You work for the railroad, Grampa?

    Blind Seer : I work for no man.

    Delmar O'Donnell : Got a name, do you?

    Blind Seer : I have no name.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : Well, that right there may be the reason you've had difficulty findin' gainful employment. You see, in the mart of competitive commerce...

  • Pete : Well I'll be a sonofabitch. Delmar's been saved.

    Delmar O'Donnell : Well that's it, boys. I've been redeemed. The preacher's done warshed away all my sins and transgressions. It's the straight and narrow from here on out, and heaven everlasting's my reward.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : Delmar, what are you talking about? We've got bigger fish to fry.

    Delmar O'Donnell : The preacher says all my sins is warshed away, including that Piggly Wiggly I knocked over in Yazoo.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : I thought you said you was innocent of those charges?

    Delmar O'Donnell : Well I was lyin'. And the preacher says that that sin's been warshed away too. Neither God nor man's got nothin' on me now. C'mon in boys, the water is fine.

  • Delmar O'Donnell : Can't you see it, Everett? Them sirens did this to Pete. They loved him up and turned him into a... horny toad. Pete! Pete! Pete! Pete! Pete! Pete. It's me - Delmar. Everett...

    Ulysses Everett McGill : Delmar. What the...

    Delmar O'Donnell : What are we gonna do?

    Ulysses Everett McGill : I'm not sure that's Pete.

    Delmar O'Donnell : Of course it's Pete. Look at him.

  • Pete : The Preacher said it absolved us.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : For him, not for the law. I'm surprised at you, Pete, I gave you credit for more brains than Delmar.

    Delmar O'Donnell : But they was witnesses that seen us redeemed.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : That's not the issue Delmar. Even if that did put you square with the Lord, the State of Mississippi's a little more hard-nosed.

    [laughs] 

    Ulysses Everett McGill : Baptism! You two are just dumber than a bag of hammers!

  • Ulysses Everett McGill : You can't display a toad in a fine restaurant like this! Why, the good folks here would go right off the feed!

    Delmar O'Donnell : I just don't think it's right keeping him under wraps like we's ashamed of him.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : Well, if it is Pete, I am ashamed of him! Way I see it, he got what he deserved, fornicating with some whore of Babylon. These things don't happen for no reason, Delmar. It's obviously some kinda judgment on his character.

    Delmar O'Donnell : Well, the two of us was fixin' to fornicate!

  • Delmar O'Donnell : Care for some gopher?

    Ulysses Everett McGill : No thank you, Delmar. A third of a gopher would only arouse my appetite without beddin' 'er back down.

    Delmar O'Donnell : Oh, you can have the whole thing. Me and Pete already had one apiece. We ran across a whole... gopher village.

  • Ulysses Everett McGill : The treasure is still there boys, believe me.

    Delmar O'Donnell : But how'd he know about the treasure?

    Ulysses Everett McGill : I don't know Delmar. The blind are reputed to possess sensitivities compensating for their lack of sight, even to the point of developing paranormal psychic powers. Now, clearly seeing into the future would fall into neatly into that category; its not so surprising then that an organism deprived of its earthly vision...

    Pete : He said we wouldn't get get it. He said we wouldn't get the treasure we seek on account of our ob-stac-les.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : Well what the hell does he know, he's just an ignorant old man?

  • George Nelson : Cows! I hate cows worse than coppers!

    [fires his Tommy gun at them] 

    Delmar O'Donnell : Oh, George... not the livestock.

  • [singing] 

    Ulysses Everett McGill : I am a man of constant sorrow, I've seen trouble all my days. I bid farewell to old Kentucky, the place where I was born and raised.

    Delmar O'Donnell , Pete : The place where he was born and raised.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : For six long years I've been in trouble, no pleasure here on Earth I've found. For in this world I'm bound to ramble, I have no friends to help me out.

    Delmar O'Donnell , Pete : He has no friends to help him out.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger, my face you never will see no more. But there is one promise that is given, I'll meet you on God's golden shore.

    Delmar O'Donnell , Pete : He'll meet you on God's golden shore.

  • George Nelson : [after Nelson has robbed the bank]  Thank you folks! And remember, Jesus saves, but George Nelson withdraws!

    [laughs] 

    George Nelson : Go fetch the auto voiture, Pete.

    Woman In Bank : [whispering]  Is that "Babyface" Nelson?

    George Nelson : Who said that?

    [pause] 

    George Nelson : What ignorant, low down, slanderizin, son of a bitch said that?

    [goes up to woman] 

    George Nelson : My name is George Nelson, get me?

    Delmar O'Donnell : She didn't mean nothin by it, George.

    George Nelson : [noticeably upset]  George Nelson! Not "Babyface"! You remember, and you tell your friends! I'm George Nelson! Born to raise hell!

    [Nelson points his Tommy Gun towards the ceiling and fires it, and the bank patrons jump] 

  • Delmar O'Donnell : I'm gonna visit those foreclosing son-of-a-guns at the Indianola Savings & Loan, slap that money on the barrelhead and buy back the family farm. You ain't no kind of man if you ain't got land.

  • Pete : Well hell, it ain't square one! Ain't nobody gonna pick up three filthy, unshaved hitch-hikers, and one of them a know-it-all that can't keep his trap shut.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : Pete, the personal rancor reflected in that remark I don't intend to dignify with comment. But I would like to address your general attitude of hopeless negativism. Consider the lilies of the goddamn field or... hell! Take at look at Delmar here as your paradigm of hope.

    Delmar O'Donnell : Yeah, look at me.

  • Ulysses Everett McGill : Deceitful, two-faced she-woman. Never trust a female Delmar, remember that one simple precept and your time with me will not have been ill spent.

    Delmar O'Donnell : Ok, Everett.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : Hit by a train! Truth means nothing to a woman, Delmar. Triumph of the subjective. You ever been with a woman?

    Delmar O'Donnell : Well, I... I... I gotta get the family farm back before I can start thinking about that.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : That's right, if then. Believe me Delmar, woman is the most fiendish instrument of torture ever devised to bedevil the days of man.

  • Delmar O'Donnell : We thought you was a toad!

    Pete : What?

    Delmar O'Donnell : [leaning in, speaking slower]  We thought you was a toad!

  • Delmar O'Donnell : Them syreens did this to Pete. They loved him up and turned him into a horny toad.

  • Pete : Crazy! No one's ever gonna believe we're a real band.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : No, it's gonna work. I just gotta get close enough to talk to her. Takin' off with us has got more future than marryin' a guy named Waldrip. I'm Goddamned bona fide!

    Delmar O'Donnell : Everett, my beard itches.

  • Ulysses Everett McGill : [riding past a chain gang, Everett and Delmar see Pete]  Pete got a brother?

    Delmar O'Donnell : Not that I'm aware.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : Heat must be getting to me.

  • Washington Hogwallop : Mrs. Hogwallop up and R-U-N-N-O-F-T.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : She musta been lookin' for answers.

    Washington Hogwallop : Possibly. Good riddance as far as I'm concerned. I do miss her cookin' though.

    Delmar O'Donnell : This stew's awful good.

    Washington Hogwallop : [examining his fork]  You think so? I slaughtered this horse last Tuesday... I'm afraid she's startin' to turn.

  • Delmar O'Donnell : Friend? Some of your foldin' money's come unstowed.

  • Ulysses Everett McGill : I'm not sure that's Pete.

    Delmar O'Donnell : Of course it's Pete! Look at him!... We gotta find some kind of wizard to change him back.

  • Delmar O'Donnell : Jacking up banks. I can see how a fella'd derive a whole lot of pleasure and satisfaction out of it.

  • Big Dan Teague : Thank you for the conversational hiatus. I generally refrain from speech durin' gustation. I find it course and vulgar. Where were we?

    Delmar O'Donnell : Makin' money in the service of the Lord.

    Big Dan Teague : Heh, you don't say much, friend, but when you do, it's to the point and I salute you for it!

  • Pappy O'Daniel : Furthermore, in the second Pappy O'Daniel administration, these boys is gonna be my *brain* trust.

    Delmar O'Donnell : What's that mean, Everett?

    Ulysses Everett McGill : Well, Delmar, it means that you and me and Pete and Tommy are gonna be the power behind the throne, so to speak.

  • Delmar O'Donnell : Everett, I never figured you for a paterfamilias.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : Oh-ho, yes, I have spread my seed.

  • Delmar O'Donnell : They... left... his... heart!

  • Delmar O'Donnell : Hey mister! I don't mean to be tellin' tales out of school, but there's a feller in there that'll pay you ten dollars if you sing into his can.

  • Ulysses Everett McGill : Jesus! Can I count on you people?

    Delmar O'Donnell : Sorry, Everett.

  • Delmar O'Donnell : where's the happy little tire swing?

  • Ulysses Everett McGill : Pretty soon they'll be nothin' but feather beds and silk sheets.

    Pete : A million dollars.

    Ulysses Everett McGill : A million point two.

    Delmar O'Donnell : Five hundred thousand each.

  • Delmar O'Donnell : There's a feller in there that'll pay you $10 if you sing into his can.

    Pappy O'Daniel : I'm not here to make a record, you dumb cracker!

  • Delmar O'Donnell : Pull over, Everett. Let's give that colored boy a lift.

    [Everett pulls over at the crossroads] 

  • Delmar O'Donnell : Damn, we gotta skedaddle.

  • Delmar O'Donnell : We didn't abandon you, Pete, we just thought you was a toad.

    Pete : No, they never did turn me into a toad.

    Delmar O'Donnell : Well, that was our mistake then.

  • Delmar O'Donnell : We was beat up by a bible salesman and banished from Woolworth's. I don't know, Everett, was it the one branch or all of 'em?

  • Delmar O'Donnell : We ain't really negroes.
